Abstract: A low-temperature regenerative type moisture absorbing element of fast moisture absorbing and releasing speed, capable of regenerating at 110 °C or less and having a sufficiently high moisture absorbing and releasing performance in spite of small size is provided. A low-temperature regenerative type moisture absorbing element is mainly composed of high moisture absorbing and releasing polymeric compound with the content of salt type carboxyl group adjusted to a specific amount, and further comprises plural gas passages, of which regeneration temperature is 110°C or less. It is hence possible to provide a moisture absorbing element of small size, high efficiency, and energy-saving type, being excellent in moisture absorbing and releasing performance, and easily capable of removing absorbed moisture at low temperature which was impossible with the conventional moisture absorbing element. It can be applied not only in industrial and commercial uses, but also in household dehumidifying and drying applications, and may be employed in dehumidifying and drying applications of various gases.

Abstract: The method for the speed regulation is carried out with a first desired speed value manually specified and a second desired value, depending at least one the bend course or the bend radius. The desired transverse acceleration value (a soll) is computed for determining the second speed desired value (F2 soll), depending on a maximum permitted transverse acceleration value (a max), which results from the road condition of the road stretch being negotiated e.g. the road adhesion contribution and the surface ripple, and the bend course or the bend radii (KR) of the stretch.

Abstract: A method of controlling a viscous fluid coupling (15) in which, when the vehicle engine (E) is operating at low speeds, if the speed of rotation (SF) of the fan exceeds a predetermined speed limit (L3), the input signal (29) to the coupling is modified to move the valve member (49) toward a closed position (FIG. 3A). This action reduces the occurrence of an overfill condition, thus reducing undesired fan noise when the engine again accelerates. Another aspect of the invention is to sense the speed (SE) of the engine, and whenever the sensed speed (SE) is high enough that operation in an excess slip heat region (ESH) is possible, compare the demanded fan speed (29) to the lower limit (CHP) of the slip heat region. Whenever the demanded fan speed exceeds the limit, the input signal (29) to the coupling is modified to operate the coupling at a speed safely above or below the slip heat region (ESH) depending on the state of control inputs such as engine temperature.

Abstract: A latch-lock mechanism for an airplane cargo door (34) is disclosed. The latch-lock mechanism includes straight-through drive shafts rotated by a common powered drive unit (61). Affixed to the outer ends of the drive shafts are pull-in hooks (67) that co-act with pull-in pins affixed to the fuselage of the airplane adjacent to the sides of the cargo door opening. The co-action between the pull-in hooks and the pull-in pins pulls the cargo door into a closed position against a distorted fuselage cargo door opening. During opening, the co-action between the pull-in hooks and the pull-in pins force the door open against ice jams. After being pulled into a closed position, latch cams (89) rotated by the drive shafts are closed around latch pins (131). Thereafter, lock pawls (159) are moved into a closed position. The latch-lock mechanism also includes witness ports (193) located in the cargo door (34) that enable a mechanic to verify that the lock pawls (159) are in the closed position. The lock pawls (159) are prevented from closing unless they "feel" that the associated latch cam (89) is closed. The latch-lock handle mechanism also includes a lock handle housing (141) that must be opened in order to access a manual drive 90° gear box (71) used to manually operate the power drive unit (61) and, thus, rotate the drive shafts. Further, mechanical fusing is provided to prevent the application of excessive manual force to the latch-lock mechanism. The lock handle housing (141) is closed by a lock handle (203) having latch whose holding force must be overcome by a pull force, which eliminates the possibility of the door being opened by hydrodynamic water pressure.

In another embodiment, the tapered body is solid and formed of a porous biocompatible material having sufficient structural integrity to maintain the intradiscal space and normal curvature. The material is preferably a porous tantalum having fully interconnected pores to facilitate complete bone tissue ingrowtli into the implant. An implant driver is provided which engages the truncated side walls to complete the cylindrical form of the implant at the root diameter of the interrupted threads, to thereby facilitate threaded insertion of the implant to the intradiscal space between adjacent vertebrae. Methods for posterior and anterior insertion of the fusion device are also disclosed.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of improving a membrane permeation rate when permeating a fermentation broth obtained by culturing a microorganism belonging to the genus Escherichia through a membrane to separate cells is developed. More specifically it relates to a method of treating a fermentation broth, characterized in that a fermentation broth obtained by culturing a microorgasm belonging to the genus Escherichia is heat-treated at from 110 to 200°C with a pH of from 1 to 4.5, and is then filtered through the membrane. The membrane permeation rate of the fermentation broth in the removal of cells therefrom can be improved by from approximately 1.5 to 20 times in comparison to the case where the treatment of the present invention is not conducted. Therefore, the membrane permeation rate can easily be improved and the efficiency of the membrane filtration equipment can be increased.

Abstract: In a frequency multiplier (31) constructed to input an input signal to a transistor (32) through an input matching circuit (33) and output a multiplied output signal outputted from the transistor (32) through a reflecting type fundamental wave signal band suppressing circuit (41) and an output matching circuit (42), a transmission line (40) for producing a standing wave is disposed between the output terminal of the transistor (32) and the input terminal of the reflecting type fundamental wave signal band suppressing circuit (41). Because the voltage acting on the output terminal of the transistor (32) consequently increases, the transistor (32) operates at a point at which the nonlinearity of its input-output characteristic is greater and the output power of the multiplied output signal increases.

Abstract: A plasma etch process for etching a workpiece in a
processing chamber of a plasma reactor which produces
improved photoresist layer etch uniformity and
selectivity, reduced faceting of the photoresist, reduced
polymer peeling, and reduced etching of exposed barrier
layer surfaces. This improvement is obtained by
modifying certain process parameters in a way atypical of
current etch processes. Specifically, the chamber
pressure and/or flow rate of fluorine-containing
components of the etchant gas are increased. In
addition, a decrease in the source power used to maintain
the plasma or an increase in the roof temperature of the
chamber will also contribute to the improvement. To
prevent the occurrence of significant etch stopping, a
diluent is added to the etchant gas to limit the
formation of polymer. The addition of a diluent works
well up to a point, after which the combined effect of
modifying the aforementioned process parameters causes
etch stopping regardless of the amount of diluent gas
flowing through the chamber. Therefore, values chosen
for the four process parameters are coordinated to
optimize the benefits of the present invention, while
minimizing etch stopping.
